Part 2: Mastering If-Else and Conditional Logic in Python (Part 2)
Continuing from Part 1, let's explore more advanced techniques in Python’s control flow:
1. Using else for Default Behavior
Else catches all cases when previous conditions are False.
temperature = 10
if temperature > 30:
print("It's hot outside.")
elif temperature > 20:
print("It's warm outside.")
else:
print("It's cold outside.")
2. Nested if Statements
Use nested if statements for more hierarchical decision-making.
age = 20
has_license = True
if age >= 18:
if has_license:
print("You can drive.")
else:
print("You cannot drive.")
else:
print("You are too young to drive.")
3. Ternary Operators
Shorthand for simple if-else conditions.
age = 15
message = "You are an adult." if age >= 18 else "You are not an adult."
print(message)
4. Checking Multiple Conditions with in
Use the in keyword to check for values in collections easily.
day = "Saturday"
if day in ["Saturday", "Sunday"]:
print("It's the weekend!")
else:
print("It's a weekday.")
Mastering these techniques will make your Python code cleaner and more efficient.
